ALZHEIMER is a disease that occurs in people over the age of 65, progresses with dementia, and causes the brain to lose many functions. In particular, memory loss is at the forefront. It is characterized by abnormal protein deposition in the brain tissue.

It can only be called dementia, that is, its medical name. dementia can develop in the elderly due to many reasons. Especially senile dementia, which remembers very old memories as if they were yesterday but cannot remember someone they saw a few hours ago, is not Alzheimer's. It starts with informing and educating. Because Alzheimer's patients are dependent on the family members around them and their treatment depends entirely on their family members. For this reason, education of the close circle is very important.
Another leg of the treatment is SUPPORTIVE TREATMENT. Alzheimer's doesn't just mean memory loss. Patients also have some psychiatric disorders such as irritability, depression, and hallucinations. Struggling with these and other symptoms that occur in addition to memory loss is a part of the treatment
CLASSICAL MEDICAL TREATMENT: There is no definitive treatment for Alzheimer's disease. All medications used are aimed at reducing the symptoms of the disease as much as possible and stopping its progression.
COMPLEMENTARY MEDICAL TREATMENTS: While classical medical medications are used in Alzheimer's disease, on the other hand, the use of complementary medical treatments makes the symptoms of the disease worse. control and ensures that the patient becomes more energetic and healthier. s. Primarily, medical leech therapy + Medical ozone therapy + Magnetic field therapy and cupping applications are used.

SPECIAL DIET APPLICATION : Alzheimer's patients have problems in the intestinal system. Due to the deteriorated intestinal flora, digestion cannot be complete and especially GLUTENOMORPHINE, the incompletely digested form of wheat, and CASEINOMORPHIN, the undigested form of milk, leak into the blood through the damaged intestinal wall and reach the brain directly. These two morphine-derived undigested foods support the progression of Alzheimer's. For this reason, we make patients follow a special diet. Additionally, as part of the treatment, we recommend special dietary practices to correct the intestinal system and improve the disrupted intestinal flora. In addition, we always perform a FOOD INTOLERANCE TEST on every Alzheimer's patient. In this way, it is determined whether there is an allergy to any food, and if so, these foods are removed from the daily diet list.
